Officiated by Lina A Conde at Home ceremony in Williamsville, New York on February 14th, 2025. Witnessed by Manuel Garcia and Nashalee Allende.
Dearly Beloved, Family & Friends,
We gathered here to Celebrate the love between Angelica & Jose.
These two have been united in holy matrimony for 10 years and keep it going. Like they say to one another "YOU ARE STILL TE ONE". They know that love, loyalty, and understanding are the foundations of a happy and enduring home.
Angelica will share her vows while Jose will not share his vows because he is shy and prefers to read them to her in private. We all know what that means!
*(Vows)*
Jose, the way we met back in the Stoneage of 2011 was not a romantic story, it was MEANT TO BE. Since that day I curiously thought about you and actually missed you. Until that day at the traffic light. While I looked to the right and said " Oh shit, it's the guy I met. WTF! YUP, I knew that day you were all mine. What can I say, your eyes light up like a burning candle. I know what you are all thinking. That too was burning. Do you all know what it means to meet someone in 2011, not see them until 2014 and feel the same way you did back then? If that is not meant to be I sure don't know what is.
Fast forwarding to that evening when I was on a date with my kiddos at Domino's Pizza and I happened to just say in our conversation "Sure you can come by". Oh boy, what was I getting myself into I thought. I told the kids a friend was just stopping by to say hello. Lulu was so small she was into her pizza and nothing else. Joe looked surprised and looked over to JD. He smiled with that crooked smile, he knew. Of course, he knew. Lol. What was I thinking? Too late I said, you wore that gray t-shirt and of course the NAVY PT shirt with black sneakers, and your motorcycle sunglasses on your head even though it was nighttime, but you had to impress me. It sure gave you some point because I knew I was getting on that bike sooner or later. I knew how this was going to end. But here we go, meet the munchkins and if you survive, we can think about having a proper date.
Of course, the boys knew how to be proper and torture mom at the same time. With the, oh mommy likes him, she is nervous, look at her smiling, and much more. Yup, they did it! Lulu said hello and kept having her dinner. By the time they finished eating, it was a good night that ended with a kiss on the cheek. Once I was in the car did the boys ask me 20000 questions? YES, they did and for once in my life I took a decision that would change our life.
I believed that you would give me the chance to believe in love again and together me become better to the life that we had lived.
So, look at us now, look at these adults that we call children, look at our grandchildren, and look at this family that we have created.
This was you and I, this was all because of the love and respect that we have had for each other all these years. The good times, the difficult times, and even the times we thought we were growing apart we stood strong, and we are together because we WERE MEANT TO BE.
Jose, I ask you today.
Would you continue to be my husband, to love, cherish, adore, respect, make hot love to me, and allow me to continue driving you up the walls in a daily basis? Would you continue to love me and look at me like the first day you laid eyes on me? I said laid eyes, nothing else you dirty-minded ppl. LOL
(Wait for Confirmation) Jose : SAYS YES
Do you Jose Rosario take Angelica Batiz to be your lawfully wedded partner, to have and to hold, in good times and not so good, for richer or poorer?
Minister: Okay I have to make a stop here. Do you all see this lovely house he just got her; I mean talk about improving their life and lifestyle, I mean they bought it for their lovely family. LOL
I will continue - Keeping yourself unto her for as long as you both shall live?
Minister: Oh, I know he will forever be into her, LOL
(Wait for Confirmation) Jose says YES again.
Angelica and Jose will now exchange rings as a symbol of their love and commitment. This is what they should be doing at this point, but they have a surprise for you all.
The couple turns to the family members as they decide to inform their children that they will be joining them in this next step of the ceremony.
All 4 children join them and all together they will light the unity candles given to them.
To remind them all that no matter how old, or far away they are from each other they will forever be together and to remind themselves that uniting their lives has been the best decision they have ever made.
Candles have been lit, and Rings have been exchanged.
By the authority vested in me by American Marriage Ministries and the State of Florida, I now pronounce you still married, and I will see you in 10 ears.
Jose, you may kiss your wife.
